I'm not paula but here is what I would start with
Salt
Black pepper ( in a grinder)
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Vanilla extract
After that
Red pepper flakes
Cumin
Chili powder
Cinnamon
You need the first group for almost everything in cooking and vanilla is a great thing to add when baking sweets!. The second group is less important ( unless making chili) and you can usually get by without it, but you cannot get by without the first group!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That really depends on what ethnic cuisines you like to make:) But, I think that these are essential for me!.!.!.!.!.!.
Sea or Kosher salt
fresh ground pepper
Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning (like seasoned salt)
dried dillweed (good on fish; cucumber/potato/egg salads)
oregano
basil
rosemary
cumin
chili powder (I have several varieties)
paprika (if you can splurge on smoky paprika too, go for it!)
red pepper flakes
A big jar of minced garlic (keep in the refrigerator)
Spices for baking:
cinnamon
ginger
nutmeg
Those should carry you through most of the basic things:)
Oh, vanilla and almond extracts too!.!.!.!.
powdered, granulated & brown sugar
flour
baking powder & baking soda
chocolate chips
baking chocolate
unsweetened cocoa powderWww@FoodAQ@Com
